Chapter Summary

Yellowfang sits down on the bare earth floor of Sagewhisker's den, trying to block out her pain. She hears Sagewhisker collecting some herbs and leaving again. Then the agony begins to ease and she thinks she wants to go back to her den and sleep for a moon. Sagewhisker comes up and Yellowfang sits up and tries to look a bit more alert. Sagewhisker informs her Raggedpelt is resting and she gave him poppy seed. While tidying up her herb store, Sagewhisker asks her what she'll do. Yellowfang, not understanding, replies that she'll sleep. Sagewhisker says not now, in the future. Yellowfang says she'll be a warrior, and asks if there's some herb Sagewhisker can give her to take others' pain away.
